Product details
Overview
MAX6750KA16+T from Maxim Integrated is a low-power microprocessor supervisory circuit with dual-voltage monitoring (VCC and RESET IN), factory-trimmed 1.575V reset threshold (±2%), capacitor-adjustable reset timeout (5.7–9.5ms typical), and capacitor-adjustable watchdog timeout. It features push-pull or open-drain active-low RESET output, AEC-Q100 qualification, and operation across –40°C to +125°C for automotive and battery-powered controller applications.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6750KA16+T datasheet, MAX6750KA16+T pinout, MAX6750KA16+T application, or MAX6750KA16+T equivalent, key selection criteria include its dual-supply monitoring capability, ±2% VTH accuracy over automotive temperature range, 3.7µA supply current at VCC ≤ 2.0V, and compatibility with external resistor-divider for adjustable RESET IN threshold.
Technical Context
The MAX6750KA16+T implements dual-voltage supervision: one path monitors VCC against a factory-trimmed 1.575V threshold (±2%), while the second monitors an external voltage via RESET IN with a fixed 1.235V comparator threshold. Reset assertion occurs when either falls below its respective threshold, and reset remains asserted for a capacitor-determined timeout period (tRP = 4.94 × 10⁶ × CSRT).
It supports capacitor-adjustable watchdog timing (tWD = 4.94 × 10⁶ × CSWT for normal mode) but lacks WDS input or windowed watchdog logic-features reserved for MAX6746–MAX6751 (WDS) and MAX6752/MAX6753 (SET0/SET1). Manual reset (MR) is not present; instead, RESET IN serves as the sole external reset trigger.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reset Threshold (VCC) | 1.575V ±2% - ensures reliable brownout detection across automotive temperature range without external resistors. |
| RESET IN Threshold | 1.235V ±0.019V - enables precise external voltage monitoring using resistor divider (e.g., 3.3V rail at 1.235V × (R1+R2)/R2). |
| Supply Current | 3.7µA (typ) at VCC ≤ 2.0V - minimizes quiescent load in battery-critical systems like portable medical devices. |
| Reset Timeout Range | 0.51–9.49ms - set by 100pF–1500pF capacitor on SRT pin, covering µP power-up sequencing from fast MCUs to slow peripherals. |
| Watchdog Timeout Range | 0.51–9.49ms (normal mode) - determined by 100pF–1500pF capacitor on SWT pin; no extended or windowed mode support. |
| Operating Temperature | –40°C to +125°C - fully specified for under-hood automotive and industrial embedded environments. |
| Package | 8-pin SOT23 (K8+5) - surface-mount footprint with 1.6mm × 2.9mm body, compatible with high-density PCB layouts. |
Pinout & Package
MAX6750KA16+T is housed in an 8-pin SOT23 package (outline 21-0078, land pattern 90-0176), RoHS-compliant, with thermal resistance θJA = 196°C/W on four-layer board.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - RESET IN | Adjustable voltage monitor input | High-impedance node for external resistor-divider; asserts reset when voltage drops below 1.235V. |
| 2 - GND | Ground reference | Primary return path for internal comparators, reset timer, and leakage-limited biasing. |
| 3 - SWT | Watchdog timeout capacitor connection | Connects to ground via capacitor (CSWT) to set normal-mode watchdog timeout (tWD = 4.94×10⁶ × CSWT). |
| 4 - SRT | Reset timeout capacitor connection | Connects to ground via capacitor (CSRT) to set reset timeout period (tRP = 4.94×10⁶ × CSRT). |
| 5 - VCC | Main supply input | Power source (1.2–5.5V) and monitored rail; powers internal circuitry and enables VCC-supply reset detection. |
| 6 - WDI | Watchdog input | Falling-edge-triggered; must be toggled within tWD to prevent watchdog-induced reset; minimum pulse width 300ns. |
| 7 - RESET | Active-low reset output | Push-pull or open-drain output; guaranteed valid for VCC ≥ 1V; sinks 50µA @ 0.3V max VOL. |
| 8 - NC | No connect | Internally unused; must remain unconnected per datasheet pin configuration for MAX6750. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microprocessor supervisory applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6751KA16+T | Includes manual reset (MR) pin; otherwise identical VTH, timing, and dual-monitoring architecture. | Required where operator-initiated reset or external logic-controlled reboot is needed (e.g., field-serviceable equipment). | Select MAX6751KA16+T only if MR functionality is mandatory; MAX6750KA16+T reduces pin count and simplifies layout where MR is unnecessary. |
| TLV803EB25DBZR | Single-supply (2.5V fixed threshold), no RESET IN input, no watchdog, 1.8µA ICC, SOT23-5 package. | Suitable only for basic single-rail reset without supervision flexibility or watchdog safety layer. | Choose TLV803EB25DBZR for cost-sensitive, space-constrained designs needing only VCC reset-no dual monitoring or watchdog capability. |
Compared with MAX6751KA16+T, MAX6750KA16+T omits MR for tighter integration in automated systems; versus TLV803EB25DBZR, it adds dual-rail supervision, watchdog, and automotive-grade temperature support-justifying its use in safety-critical embedded controllers.

FAQ
What is the factory-trimmed reset threshold voltage for MAX6750KA16+T?
The MAX6750KA16+T has a factory-trimmed VCC reset threshold of 1.575V with ±2% tolerance over –40°C to +125°C. This value is laser-trimmed during production and does not require external components. The suffix "16" in the part number directly corresponds to this 1.575V threshold per Table 2 in the datasheet. The RESET IN input uses a separate fixed 1.235V comparator threshold.
Does MAX6750KA16+T support manual reset (MR) functionality?
No, MAX6750KA16+T does not include a manual reset (MR) pin. Pin 1 is designated RESET IN-not MR-and functions solely as an adjustable voltage monitor input. For manual reset capability, select MAX6751KA16+T, which replaces RESET IN with MR on pin 1 and retains identical VCC threshold, timing, and dual-supply architecture.
What watchdog modes are supported by MAX6750KA16+T?
MAX6750KA16+T supports only normal-mode watchdog timing, set by capacitor CSWT on the SWT pin (tWD = 4.94 × 10⁶ × CSWT). It does not support extended mode (no WDS pin) or windowed watchdog (no SET0/SET1 pins). Its watchdog is functionally identical to MAX6746–MAX6751 normal mode-lacking the 128× extension or min/max fault detection of MAX6752/MAX6753.
Can MAX6750KA16+T monitor two independent supply rails simultaneously?
Yes, MAX6750KA16+T performs true dual-voltage monitoring: VCC is compared against its factory-trimmed 1.575V threshold, while RESET IN monitors an external rail (e.g., 3.3V or 5V) using a fixed 1.235V comparator. RESET asserts if either voltage falls below its respective threshold. This eliminates the need for two separate supervisors in compact, multi-rail systems.
What is the minimum supply voltage required for guaranteed RESET output validity in MAX6750KA16+T?
MAX6750KA16+T guarantees valid RESET logic state (VOH/VOL within spec) for VCC ≥ 1.0V. Below 1.0V, output drive strength degrades; however, the device continues to monitor VCC and assert RESET as long as internal biasing remains functional. For applications requiring RESET validity down to 0V, a pull-down resistor (e.g., 100kΩ) is recommended on push-pull variants-but MAX6750KA16+T's RESET output type must be verified per orderable suffix.
